10 Unforgettable Video Game Bosses

IMGMR.com's Jon Batzios writes,"Clearly, the addition of bosses in games is something that has lasted until the present day, and will most likely continue to prove itself relevant in the video game industry. Given the number of bad guys we gamers have slain over the years, I think it’s safe to say that there a few that stand out more than others, that make us feel nostalgic, that make us cringe, that give us that feeling of accomplishment, and so on. Highlighting them all would be quite the task, but hopefully the following list will resonate with you, as they have done with countless fellow games over the years.

Which of these bosses are on your list? Dial that tube T.V to channel 3 and get ready to press start, because we’re about to find out."

Funky list, i gotta say some of them were obvious yet others not so much, nice nostalgia!

Why is Sephiroth not in this list? He's so F in beast

nassour4174d ago

I find him, Ganon, psycho mantis too cliche to be here

Welshy4174d ago

I'm sorry... but did you just call the Psycho Mantis cliche on any level?

That was one of the most 4th wall breaking, most creative bosses of all time, if not ever.

there is a reason he ends up on these lists time after time and you are allegedly missing it =/

Hicken4174d ago

He was underwhelming, to me. By the time I got to him, all I could see him as was an overpowered mama's boy.

This list seems to be biased towards Metal Gear (seriously, 2 of the 10?). like @sexygamer_89 said, Sephiroth definitely should have been on that list. Ridley could have made that list too. I don't necessarily agree with this one.

djslimzz4174d ago

It is a good list, but sometimes...I find that 10 isn't enough

DevilRebellion4174d ago

At first, when I saw Ganondorf from Wind Waker, I had to disagree, because the fight can last a mere 3 minutes. But the author redeemed himself when he included the Puppet Ganon stages of the battle. Yes, THEN it is one of the greatest final confrontations!

nassour4174d ago

well the best confrontation for Ganon has to be the Twilight Princess one

Gears of War 2 fish boss was really cool!

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos5h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
